Downloaded Everything, but GalCiv crashes when generating Galaxy

Hi,

GalCiv is running after install, but when i start a new game, it crashes at approx. 87% of the galaxy generation to desktop without further error indication. My debug.err is as follows:

I read another thread, that installing over the beta will cause that problem. I will uninstall GalCiv and reinstall it. After that I will post the result here....

Stupid question maybe, but how do you reinstall without downloading everything again?

Unfortunately, you can't install over the betas of GalCiv. You have to do a fresh install. :(
